Before I collapse on my bed in a quivering deaf heap…
The KROQ Weenie Roast rocked, and it also helped that I had mid-orchestra just-left-of-center seats that were simply amazing. Jimmy Eat World, as per usual, delivered a kickass performance, though for some reason, I tended to drift off into thought during Interpol and didn’t pay attention to them too much. The Killers put on a great show, but who really did an amazing performance was Audioslave. Holy effen crap. Not only did they do their own stuff, they also did a few Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine songs—and the air was electric during their set. It was just plain great. The Foo Fighters were all right (nothing to really write home about), but Motley Crue was just an indiscriminate wall of sound—all I could hear was bass and drums and that’s all. I’m glad I’ve seen them before.
And now, the quivering and the deafness and the glavin.
